Cousin thinkanti, S-chan, and I all went to a con this last weekend. Made some interesting observations.
- The oldschool is making a come back. I can't tell you how many Sailor Moon and Pokemon cosplayers I saw. Reason: unknown. But hey, they're classic.
- When I heard that con attendence had gone up, I didn't believe it. After the con I did. There were SO MANY people there. It took us over an hour to get through the pre-registration line and it's never been that long before.
- You know what's popular by what people cosplay as. Lots of Links (LoZ), Haruhis, Pokemon, Sailor Moon, Death Note, Naruto, the main stays, you know. There were also a lot of girls in kimonos this year....And Alice in Wonderland cosplays. Random but still cool because I love that book.
- This year's attendence must have been particularly large because it was all over the news this weekend. There was this one point where a marching band came up...? I don't know what that was about.
- More otakuites should come because really, our meet-ups are a little lonely with only five people. You should come!
Anyway, it was a lot of fun. Sunday was my aunt's birthday and easter so I spent the day at home, hanging out with family. Now school is up and running again and I have a self-portrait to draw. Enjoy your day everyone!
